People all over the world have mobilized to offer assistance and compassion for the people of Haiti following the devastating earthquake last week. In addition, animal welfare organizations like Best Friends Animal Society are responding to the need to assist thousands of animals left injured, homeless, and hungry. The concern is not only for the welfare of the animals, but also that stray animals can pose a significant public health risk.

January 15 – 31 BARCS will be promoting adoptions by reducing our fee to only $1! Look for the snowflake on the cage door for selected animals. We hope to adopt out hundreds of our wonderful lap warmers this winter season. ($10 City pet license will be added for Baltimore City residents) Stop down and visit with us for more info!

Last week’s DogTown Season Premiere featured a number of former Vick dogs. It was great to see how much they have progressed, given that DogTown received some of the most severe cases of aggression and behavioral issues.

Seeing these dogs go though their rehabilitation process and into into loving homes is proof that anyone, or any dog, can change for the better!
